Sixteen shades for a horse's coat and harness - bays, chestnuts, grays and blacks, and with them the leather of a saddle, the metal of buckles and tones for modeling.
Responsibility details are not available.
A horse is a surprisingly demanding subject in modeling. The coat is not of one piece, it changes shade according to the muscle beneath it, and the same coloring looks one way in the sun and another in shade. The set is put together so that for every basic type of coloring there is not only a color but also a tone for the transitions.
The brown colorings are covered by Cavalry Brown, Saddle Brown and Flat Brown, while a chestnut with a warmer cast is fine-tuned by Salmon Rose and Beige Brown. Gray and white horses are dealt with by Silvergrey, London Grey, Medium Grey and Neutral Grey together with white and ivory; with a gray horse it works well not to start with pure white but to keep it for the highest places on the back and the shoulder.
A black horse is not painted with pure black but with Black Grey finished off with Dark Grey, because a dark horse always has a bluish or brownish sheen in the light that complete black swallows. US Tan Earth suits a dun coloring and dusty legs.
For the tack there remains Leather Brown, with which the saddle, the bridle and the girth are painted. Combined with the brown tones of the coat it can be graded so that the harness stands out from the horse to the eye instead of blending into it.
The paints are acrylic and thinnable with water. With a coat it pays to work in glazes, not in covering coats: thin translucent applications create a depth that one deep coat would flatten.
